Is WWE Network available in Canada at all? I thought I read that yes but you needed to input a US address when signing up. Any ideas?

Officially, no, but yeah, if you put in a US address you can access it; same trick that people in the UK have been doing. I use that trick on Amazon when buying game keys; I just use Google's address. :P

I just finished all of NXT I thought it was a decent show (with the exception of Mojo Borely)

 

Paige is seriously the real deal so is Emma!

So, I just finally was able to sign up for the free trial of the network. First thing I did of  course, was re-watch Hogan vs. Rock from WM18. Just a stunning moment for me.

 

So uh, is it worth it to watch NXT Arrival from last night? I mean, I know the card and HHH was on etc because it was a big deal launch for them. But, were there you know, production values? Was it shot well? I know stupid questions, but I really don't want to watch video that's just badly done like some old NXT shows had (bad camera angles etc).

I think the general consensus here would be...

I've been watching it ever since they relaunched it in the current format, so I'll share my view. Production-wise, they're pretty similar to WWE's usual shows; the big differences are smaller crowds in a smaller arena and no pyros (there's occasional fog blasts in place of pyros, but that's it). They do have a tendency to chop and change both ring announcers and commentators too, but it's not as annoying as it sounds. In my opinion, NXT has the best commentary team in WWE, and that's mostly down to William Regal.

Holy ###### that was some match. That reversal powerbomb thingy was incredible looking. Cesaro needs to be pushed like crazy, he's a god damn monster. And Sami Zayn needs to be called up the main roster - I feel that's coming after Wrestlemania. He's going to have some nutso matches.

 

Also, I love them chanting Ole Ole heh.

Anyone watch TNA this week?  First of 2 shows from Wembley arena.  I was at the taping, was a really good night.  It was a shame it was at the tail end of several shows of tv tapings so they were pacing themselves.  Even so I think being in an arena packed with 10 or 15 thousand fans hot for it really done them some favours.

 

I thought the EC3 video with the speech bubbles was pretty comical

Yep, I watched it this morning. TNA's shows always seem to be better with big crowds; maybe they should just move to the UK as it's the only time they usually get big crowds nowadays. EC3's video definitely got a mild chuckle out of me too. Also saw this...

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
